Did I learn how to use psychokinesis and move objects with my mental powers? Is the banana really floating there? Maybe someone threw it at me and snapped the picture 1/1000 of a second before it smashed into my nose. Actually, I just set my camera on 5-second timer and tossed the banana up in the air. It took about 10 tries before I got it just right. Then I threw it in the blender and made myself a coffee-banana-soymilk shake.
This is another example of stopping motion except it wasn’t using a high shutter speed. You can also get this effect with a flash of light. The shutter was at 1/60 which means it would have shown some blur if I didn’t use my Nikon SB-600 speedlight.
